I paid thru Expedia for one night; however Coty Express charged my card used for “incidentals only” for the room. I’m now in the process of disputing the charge.

Budget friendly - not best area

The hotel is not in the best area of town. A lot of homeless and hookers hanging around due to the gentleman’s club up the street. The hotel has been recently been remodeled and looked nice. When we checked in we were given keys to a room that was occupied which made for an awkward encounter. The staff and who I believe was the manager apologized and I understand mix ups happen. The room was not as clean as I would have hoped. The mirror was still dirty which made me question how well the room was cleaned. When we came back from our event we stopped by the front desk to ask for a late check out, he told us to call the desk in the morning and they could help us. Point being we didn’t want to wake up early. We wanted it to be taken care of that night to avoid any fees or mix up. Overall this is a budget friendly hotel and as the saying goes you get what you pay for. Would not recommend staying here if Womens only trip or mother with kids. Wouldn’t have felt safe without my husband.
